KITES

The 15th Annual KiteFest in Jamestown June 13-14 promises to be the biggest yet with 50 guest fliers coming from out of town and out of state.
The kite festival, which will be from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. both days at Meidinger Park, traditionally attracts 2,000 to 3,000 visitors and an increasing number of kite-flying enthusiasts. Mike Gee of Wings on Strings, the local club hosting the festival, said it’s become the largest in the state.
